Had a dream in which someone used the term “a productive flirtationship” to describe their friendship with their ex, and dream me lost their mind trying to figure out what that meant

MSNBC Grandmas in Skechers seamlessly reclaiming the frog from 4chan Nazis in about six weeks has gotta be the political upset of the century.

The fun thing about dating someone named Cherry is that everyone feels the need to ask me if I’m aware of the indie game studio Team Cherry. Trust me, I am Aware.

I have some memories of saying goodbye that I don't want to forget, so I turned them into 11 minigames and backed them up in this collection.

this summer i'll be running a class on games & adaptation @boshis.place! we'll be watching movies, playing their adaptation games, and exploring the theoretical underpinnings & modalities of adaptation through readings from Baudrillard, Jameson, Hutcheon, and more.

just rickrolled myself by opening up my music streaming app to discover the last song I was listening had, in fact, been “never gonna give you up”

maybe my favourite etymology: the phrase “curry favour” originates from a medieval french morality poem about a conniving horse named fauvel who amasses a following of sycophantic humans to groom and tend to him.

over time, “currying fauvel” eventually became “currying favour.”
